DIY Mouse Chase Cat Toy

Construct an interactive toy that your cat will enjoy! Cut two circles of wood to use as pulleys, drill a bolt into the center of the pulleys and mount one pulley on one end of a long wood beam. Attach the second pulley to a rotary motor and mount the motor pulley on the opposite end of the wood beam. Wrap a string around the pulleys, tie a toy mouse onto the string and attach a wood block to either end of the beam for legs. Turn on the motor to watch the mouse run around the toy.
